Solution

  1. Budding: Budding is an asexual mode of producing new organisms. In this process, a new organism is developed from a small part of the parent’s body.
  2. In Hydra, the development of a small bud from the parent takes [place through repeated mitotic cell division.
  3. The small bud then receives its nutrition from the parent Hydra and grows healthy.
  4. Growth starts by developing small tentacles and the mouth.
  5. Finally, the new hydra gets separated from the parent hydra and becomes an independent organism.
